my roommmate and longtime best friend collects comics (which I read and used to collect) and he once collected classic Star Wars - he had a two bedroom apartment with every surface covered in SW figs- over 200 Stormtroopers alone!
But times changed and he ended up giving all his SW figs to friends that collected just to avoid that $300 a month storage fee when he moved apartments and had no room.
He's cool like that.
He also collected Marvel cards in the 90's an still has them all in binders and he gets all the Heroclix- keeping them in plastic bins, seperated by teams.
Just for shits, we assembled all the Secret Wars characters agsint my MU Galactus and the scale there is almost perfect!
Wish I'd had a camera for that (I do now though!) but it was just a lark one night.
I also build model starships (Star Trek and Star Wars in 2500th scale mostly)- even mastering a kit for sale on rare occasion, so I know people online worldwide that collect and build models.
As to the Jock/Trekkie thing, I now a ton of trekkies that are mlitary guys- everyon wishes they served Starfleet instead! LOL!
Me too!
